''The surviving soldiers of the war of 1812 were also a marked feature of the pa rade. In the rear of the great pageant came a cavalcade of citizens, numbering 400. The entire procession occupied six hours in passing any given point. As it neared the heart of the city the throng became more dense and the enthusiasm greater. The day being observed as a holiday none ot the business houses were opened. As the car riage of Gen. Grant reached the front of In dependence Hall, a few minutes before 1 o'clock, a round of applause greeted the il lustrious guest, the bell tolled forth a salute, and this was the signal for a general outburst of enthusiasm all along the line. The old .Independence Hall was tastefully decorated and festooned from the pavement to me roor, anu in front was the grand triumphal arch spanning Chestnut street, deco rated with exquisite taste and showing the motto: 'Philadelphia's welcome to the patriot and soldier.' When Gen. Grant ar rived in front of the Union League bouse he alighted from the carriage and took his position on a grand stand to review the Droceasion. The great length of the line compelled him to leave long before it had nassed. the weather becoming raw and chilly. Altogether the demonstration was probably the most imposing ever witnessed in this citv.

The prosecuting witness, a man named Gulley, with no little eloquence- and elaboration, proceeded to inform the Court as to the ex tent of the woman's offence, which consist ed in raising -frequent disturbances at his house on the pretext that he was harboring her husband. He couldn't stand it any longer, and asked the protection of the Court. When she was "in good order," remarked the witness, there was no better woman, but her conduct and language on the occasions complained of were in very bad form. He was willing, if she would behave herself, to "extend the right hand of fellowship," fec. At the close of the tes timony. the woman made a Statement, but as she was suffering from the effects of a fractured jaw-bone, the result of one of her tilts with her husband, as she declared, an interpreter was needed to give the MayOr an adequate conception of her real senti ments oc the interesting subject. On the promise of good behavior in the future She was told to go and sin no more. A number of hucksters were summoned before the Court to answer to the charge of failing to comply with the city ordinance in reference to hucksters, which requires them to pay a weekly license. They were called . up one at a time, and severally gave in their excuses for failure as aforesaid, and the Mayor finally let them go on condition that they would settle up with the Clerk of the Market before night, upon failure to do which ' they were to be brought before him again, when the penalty would be enforced.
